Truck boxes are secure

WEATHER GUARD® has introduced its 2024 Saddle and Lo-Side Boxes. With 1Key Ultralock, a locking and latching system with fleet management versatility, users can manage one truck or a fleet of truck boxes by coding each to a single 1Key. A highly visible, pop-up red lock allows users to see whether a truck box is locked.

The box’s ARMOR Tuf® powder coat is said to allow for long-lasting performance and precision-fit weather stripping provides a tight seal for weather resistance and protection. Additionally, the box has multiple attachment points for wide clearance for straps.
